You’ve got your new life in a new land
New friends, new thoughts, new feelings
New places to spend your little piece of the pie
But it’s your old life that fills your mind
Old friends, old thoughts, old feelings
Old places you spent the golden days of your life
Well it’s a long way to home and back
The ticket’s in my hand
I’m surely gonna go one way
but I don’t know if I’m coming back
No I don’t know if I’m coming back
Get your shoes on and take a walk
Have a look at all the world around you
It should be building you up,
But it’s been breaking you down
Somewhere out there, there’s a key
All you’ve got to do is look, you’ll it
Instead of locking things up
It’s gonna set them al free
Well it’s a long way to home and back…
You’ve got everything a simple man should need to fill his heart
Good love, a nice place to live. lots of other stuff that ain't even got no name
Well it’s a long way to peace untold
Been trying to find that train
I know that when I catch that ride
I’ll find the same life at the end of the line
I’ll find the same life at the end of the line
You’ve got your new life in a new land
New friends, new thoughts, new feelings
New places to spend your little piece of the pie
New places to walk and read a book in the park
New places to drink on a Saturday night
New places to make a little love on the beach
New places to dream about being a star
